You’re focusing on the memories and experiences of a person, but are completely ignoring the potential to grow, develop, and do things - something that 30-year-olds have, and 90-year-olds pretty much don’t.

But it only takes 30 years to make a 30 year old. They're at least 3x more replaceable than 90 year olds.

[edit] also, do things for whom? To what end if not to build experience?

Alternatively, most 30 year olds have 30 more years to contribute to society. Most 90 year olds do not.

[archagon]

Why is “ability to contribute to society” a factor in considering who to save? Down that path lies euthanasia of the disabled and mentally ill.

and this is bad how?
